An international team of scientists conducted a study on air pollution in Mexico City's basin, where inversions trap pollutants and fine particles pose significant health risks. The study provides insights into particle concentrations, transport patterns, and implications for U.S. cities.
Researchers at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have developed two portable detection systems that can identify strategic metals used to make nuclear weapons. The Material Identification System uses eddy current technology to detect metals, while the Ultrasonic Pulse Echo instrument uses ultrasound to characterize container contents.
Researchers at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have developed three innovative technologies: Production of Chemicals from Biologically Derived Succinic Acid, Refractory Corrosion Monitor, and RubberCycleTM. The first process converts corn into a cost-effective source of chemicals used in various products, while the second dev...
